Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh
Keep your real friends close
And your frenemies closer (yeah!)
Who else will buy you drinks

Fake Friends

This club ain’t shit but fake men
I’m chillin’ with my fake friends
My fake friends
Fake Friends
I’m chillin’ with my fake friends
This club ain’t shit but fake men
I’m chillin’ with my fake friends
My fake friends
I really love everything that you do
Going out to the club dressed all in that new new
We pose for a pic we just look so damn cool
But baby I don’t see myself ever trusting you
(Self ever trusting you, self ever trusting you)
Yeah you’re my best friend but I’ll
Never trust you
Fake Friends
